Tighten up when BB is largest stack. Loosen up when it's the short stack.

Isn't this the other way around?
A big stack doesn't want to risk losing his chip lead, and a small stack needs to double up and will have good odds to call.

No. You do have lower FE against the shortstack but stealing a blind from him greatly increases your chances to make it ITM. Stealing from the BS doesn't have the same effect. Also, you don't always have to be ahead of the SS's calling range to make it +EV. Short stacks tend to loosen up their calling range in relation to the size of their stack until they blind down to the point where it's still +EV to raise anytwo knowing that you will be called.
